Blue and white in difficult weather conditions in Novoshakhtinsk won a major victory over the Rostov youth team (6:1).
Probably the most predictable match in terms of the final result this season was played by the blue and white in Novoshakhtinsk. If the game of the first round in Novogorsk ended with a score of 7:0 in favor of Dynamo, then something similar could be expected in the return meeting on Rostov land.
And the spectators and fans really saw seven goals. However, the bill this time was not so large in favor of the guests.
Dynamovki did not take long with the goals scored and issued their first one by the 10th minute. This was done by Alexandra Shevchenko after a shot by Valeria Azeeva and a rebound from the defender of Rostov – 1:0.
It would be strange to expect that our team, which scores a lot this season and plays brightly in attack, would stop there. Nevertheless, the next goal against Rostov had to wait as long as 20 minutes, but it was worth it. In the 30th minute, Svetlana Vinnikova unexpectedly for the Rostov defenders ran from deep into Irina Dricheva's serve from the corner and literally drove the ball into the net of her former team, for which she played last season!
The teams left for a break with the score 2:0 in favor of Dynamo, but as it turned out, all the most interesting things were waiting for us in the second half.
To begin with, the blue and white presented intrigue to the audience at the Central Stadium in Novoshakhtinsk. The central defender of Dynamo Anna Chudilina, trying to knock the ball out of the penalty area, drove over the legs of Sofia Shabarshina and earned a completely optional penalty. The captain of the Rostov team Ekaterina Pinegina clearly implemented it and reduced the score to a minimum of 2:1…
However, the intrigue did not last very long: two minutes after the missed ball, Shevchenko successfully put her foot under Varvara Demidova's corner kick and returned the comfortable two-goal advantage to the team. Well, five minutes later, Alexandra scored a hat-trick at all – this time with a beautiful long–range shot into the "nine" of the Rostov gate - 4:1!
Rostov women again tried to revive at least some intrigue, but then Dynamo goalkeeper Maria Leontieva showed herself, who came to the game with a captain's armband. Our captain made a great save after being hit by the same Shabarshina and deprived the opponents of the last hope of saving the game.
The end of the meeting was held under the full control of Dynamo: the blue and white not only calmly held the advantage in the score and the game, but also added two more masterful goals to their piggy bank. First, Dricheva on the patch at the right corner wound up the Rostov defender and threw goalkeeper Arina Sarantseva into the far corner with a smart parachute, and then Vinnikova put an end to the match by scoring a double against the former team.
An interesting point: having only three reserve players in stock, including goalkeeper Diana Guzhova, the coaching staff used them all. At the 84th minute, Diana also appeared on the field, and she replaced not goalkeeper Maria Leontieva, but Valeria Azeeva, who had a warning, and entered the game as a field player. Perhaps another historical episode for our team.
6:1 – the fifth victory in a row of the Dynamo youth team, which allowed Oleg Gusev's team to rise to first place in the standings! Only Lokomotiv, which will hold its match in Samara against Krylia Sovetov a little later, can now move Dynamo.
